With tiny paws come tiny responsibilities, y'all.
This is every bit as amazing (and more) as I hoped it would be.

I got a copy of this book to review through NetGalley(dot)com. I have read a lot of the Pusheen web comics and enjoyed them, so I was excited to give this book a read. It is an okay book, that is more cutesy than funny.
Pusheen reminds of Hello Kitty with a more typical cattitude. This book is
This would make a cute little coffee table book...especially for someone who's a fan of the Pusheen blog/webcomic.
There is not a ton of content here. I got this for review and breezed through it in maybe 20 minutes. Some of the cartoons will be funny to cat lovers. Some of it is just kind of cutesy.
An effort is made to stick with theme of each section of the book. It was okay. I appreciate that they tried to give this book a purpose and organization for the cartoons. However, I think it would have been a better book if they would have just had the cartoons in there and not force them to a chapter theme.
I really feel like this could have been a bit more clever and funny. I have seen other Pusheen comics that really make me laugh and there wasn’t a ton of those in this book.
Overall this was a cute book but nothing fantastic. It’s one of those books you can lay on the coffee table and someone can pick it up and page through the whole things in 15 minutes and go “Oh, that was kind of cute” and then it will be forgotten. I guess if you are a huge Pusheen fan or cat fan go to the bookstore and give it a look through.

This tells of the adventures of Pusheen the cat as well as tips for cat owners and potential cat owners.
This is a quick, cute, hilarious read.
The drawings are fun and adorable. Humor filled tag lines adorn and help explain the drawings.
Overall, a fun read!

Pusheen is a cat that likes food, blogging, and sleeping. Her BFF (and little sister) is Stormy who is super fluffy and likes to chase things.
I had so much fun hanging with Pusheen and Stormy, that I went online to Pusheen.com and explored the blog where the original animated comics developed. I
If you have children, I'd definitely recommend this book to kids old enough to read (maybe 4+ yo) I shared the book with D, a five year old I babysat today, and he absolutely loved it! He was pretty much giggling the whole time. Cat lovers of all ages would be thrilled to find this book in their stocking on Christmas Day (hint, hint).
Many thanks to NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this book.

If you are sick of cute cat memes, you may turn away from Pusheen on first glance, but that would be a mistake. Yes, it's cute. Very cute. Yes, it's about a cat(s). But Pusheen has a freshly simplistic art style and minimalist wit that completely won me over.

Pusheen is a popular webcomic that in recent years has amassed quite the following. It’s hard to say exactly why I love Pusheen but it could have something to do with the fact that the art is insanely cute and that Pusheen slightly resembles my own cat, Gertie. They’re both grey, impossibly
Full Disclosure: I received an advanced copy from the publisher in exchange for a review.
Pusheen’s first foray into the literary world is in the form of a collection of her most beloved comics. The concept of taking the best of an online comic and compiling it into a physical book always confused me. Don’t get me wrong, the artist behind the work certainly deserves to be compensated, I just wonder why someone would want to buy material they can access for free online. I guess that’s a common dilemma brought about by the presence of widespread online piracy but that’s a subject for another time.
While you’re not particularly getting anything new with this book, you are getting the best of Pusheen in a solid, tangible form. Which is a plus – especially if you want to let your kids read it. It’s funny and cute enough for the young ones but also something that adults can enjoy equally. You know, like a Pixar film.
If you liked the book and haven’t visited Pusheen’s online presence, you’re doing yourself a disservice. On the blog, the artist often animates the comics which brings a whole new life to the character. Check it out!
